(NaturalNews) The reports are absolutely true. Facebook suspended the Natural News account earlier today after we posted an historical quote from Mohandas Gandhi. The quote reads:

"Among the many misdeeds of British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest." - Mohandas Gandhi, an Autobiography, page 446.

This historical quote was apparently too much for Facebook's censors to bear. They suspended our account and gave us a "final warning" that one more violation of their so-called "community guidelines" would result in our account being permanently deactivated.

They then demanded we send them a color copy of a "government issued identification" in order to reactivate our account. Our account was removed from suspension just minutes before InfoWars posted its article on this Facebook censorship, and the Facebook page is now functioning at:www.Facebook.com/NaturalNews

This is a separate account from our primary Facebook account, which has nearly 250,000 followers at:www.Facebook.com/HealthRanger

It's hard to believe America is preaching itself as a citadel for civil rights when Facebook is banning historical quotes pertaining to the ownership of arms. I smell Big Brother's nasty scent in this.

Socialistic Anarchists like John Lennon and Gandhi are my favourite historical figures. As a Socialistic Anarchist myself, I too am pro-gun. The moment we begin blaming weapons for all the violence in the world is the moment when we forget that it is the people who ultimately wield them. I want to solve the problems of violence in the world as much as anyone else, but that is why I look at the problem with people rather than just blaming video games or weapons or comics or books or anything else that has been foolishly and immaturely labelled as the problem.The smartest person on the issue?
